    EDUCATION
    Princeton University (PU) Princeton, NJ Aug. 2015- Expected Jan. 2021
    • Ph.D. in Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering

    • Courses: Fundamentals of Machine Learning; Machine Learning (ML) & Pattern Recognition; Statistical Analysis

    of Financial Data; High Frequency Markets: Models & Data Analysis; Mathematical Methods for Eng. Analysis
    University of Science & Technology of China (USTC) Anhui, China Aug. 2011 – July 2015
    • B.Eng. (Valedictorian) in Department of Thermal Science & Energy Engineering

    • Rank: 1/185 (School of Engineering Science); Overall Grade: 92.91/100

    • Courses: Computer Programming; Data Structures & Database; Computational Methods; Probability & Statistics.

    RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
    Quantitative Brokers LLC Quantitative Research Intern May 2019-Aug.2019
    Consensus of Multiple Signals for Price Change Prediction
    • Created an algorithm combing k-means clustering and linear regression for fitting multivariate relationship

    between the signals and the future price change, a crucial part of the trading algorithm
    • Achieved faster and better convergence to global optimum for large data sets (millions of rows) by implementing

    revised simulated annealing instead of using the existing packages; Data manipulation used packages like dplyr.
    • Created data visualization such as specialized 3D plots/videos, based on the basic graphics packages such as

    plotly, which helped investigate the convergence of SA and the performance of signal consensus
    • All algorithms were implemented in R. Version control was maintained using Github

    High Contrast Imaging Lab, PU Research Assistant Mar. 2016- present


    Detection and Characterization of Exoplanets with a Starshade
    17
    • Created an algorithm to simulate realistic images for the full-scale (~30m by 3*10 m) starshade-telescope

    system, which was essential for validating the feasibility of the space missions and investigating the error budgets
    • Developed image processing methods, such as generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT), to extract exoplanet

    signals from starshade images despite of various errors


    • Developed sequential GRLT using a binomial distribution for photon-counting (PC) image, for which type of

    images no specialized image processing methods had been developed before. It can help use the observation time
    more efficiently as it generates false alarm rates online after each PC image
    • Algorithms were in Matlab and run via Batch scheduler on clusters with Linux. Version control used Bitbucket.

    initiated this graduate student chapter; Coordinated various social and professional development activities
    • Leader of The Debate Team of School of Engineering Science, USTC (Sept. 2011-June 2013): Won 2nd Place
    in USTC’s Championships; Recruited and Trained new members; Organized Debate Championships
